ABBA Meet Tight Fit On Fantasy Island.

A peak of number five for Tight Fit with "Fantasy Island". Strange how just as the popularity of Abba was finally diminishing, that one of the most airplayed songs of that summer sounded just like them. Tight Fit were comprised of male model type 'Steve Grant' and two young women. They looked to have a great career ahead of them. They had previously hit with two medleys in 1981 (probably not sang by them on the actual record, but session musicians). It was surprising when they hit again in early 82 with a cover of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", even more so when they hit number one with it. There were again rumours about whether it was them at all, the biggest being that Steve didn't do the vocals. "Fantasy Island" was the only one without such rumours, but it stood up on it's own as a brilliant pop record. Sadly, it was to be their last hit, as the follow up "Secret Heart" stalled at number 41 three months later. I don't know what happened to the women, but the last I heard of Steve Grant, he was the live in lover of Eartha Kitt (she must have liked his cha cha heels ! )

I Thought I would do a fun Video imagining ABBA singing someone elses song hope you like it naturally they had to have a ABBA sounding song. Though clearly not ABBA.
I Also never put an image on the screen with out it meaning something pertaining to the lyrics.
Never have and never will, each and every image has a meaning.
